Resizing and Repositioning Floors

You can use Resize Floor to change the floor size by manually dragging the borders. When you click Resize Floor, grips display at the corners and midpoints of the floor edges. When you drag a grip, a value input box displays the floor dimension.



The new floor size is saved in the Floor/Grid Settings dialog box. If Auto Size is enabled, Resize Floor also changes the minimum floor size settings.
